B210GX Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 I would pay $250 including shipping for a grill. Really? Quote Link to comment
mhub91 Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Yeah. Definitely Quote Link to comment
Sastis Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 Yeah. Definitely Really? Autolet has what you want but it's base in Thailand. Dguy210 has another source. Also, your in WA now Dguy210? Quote Link to comment
Sastis Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 http://www.autoletparts.com/Total22.html Looks like they sold out....but they do have the other grille still. Dguy has another source also in Thailand I believe. Brother something on Facebook. Quote Link to comment
B2Fresh Posted September 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 I'd be interested in a tachometer for a B210 if you have a source in getting one. Quote Link to comment

Also, your in WA now Dguy210?Portland OR area. Brother Jo off facebook, good guy, slow but cheap shipping. Note: for the Tach it has to be off a LHD car as it had an angle to the plastic casing. You might be able to mod a clock or speedo case to take the guts I guess. Quote Link to comment
B2Fresh Posted September 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 As long as I can get the tach I can change over the correct housing. I just need a tach.. Thanks for the info "Dguy210".. Quote Link to comment
superjesus Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 when i first got my datsun i was searching for a tack online when i came a across a guy selling his for 250 aussie bucks , is it just me or is that just unreasonably high? Parts search is going slow.. found a lead on a 120y badge though. Found this old 140y in the classifieds all the way in south africa, would make a sweet ratrod/roadkill type ride. but alas its in an another country, on another continent in an another hemisphere *sign*but maybe on my next trip to africa i'll contact the owner and see if i can take a few parts (anybody know if this front end will fit a '76 datsun sedan? i like the pointed front end). my last trip i didn't bother to find contacts before going thinking i could pick up parts on the fly... my lazy ass was wrong. i dont want to contact sellers directly (only in person) in south africa since the chances of getting ripped off is very high, either a middle man or not at all :/ Quote Link to comment

B210ratsun Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 You want something like this. show me more! That is very nicely done. 1 Quote Link to comment
B210GX Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 THAT is the grill i want! I would pay big, big money for it! BIG MONEY IS WHAT YOU WILL NEED... EXCEPT you will need much more than the grille. That is the South African version of a B210 "sunny excellent" the nose is completely different "v" shaped (if you will) the core support is much deeper, the hood and bumper are V shaped and the lower valance is also. 2 Quote Link to comment
chris850 Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 This is my 1978 a14 4spd. This is where it started and where it is now. Gonna keep the bare metal rat look. The goal with this car is to spend as little as possible and keep it cool. Quote Link to comment

Just the way it sits. It would coast a whole lot of money to have shipped to CA. I hope it gets a second chance cuz it has a lot of potential by the way it looks here.. Quote Link to comment

mhub91 Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 I like those wheels. What are they? In my opinion, though, 14" wheels just look too big on a B210. I love my Hayashi Command 13"!!! Quote Link to comment

mhub91 Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Yeah, last time I went to buy a jap bumper the dude was a rip off... learned my lesson. Quote Link to comment
Sastis Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Yeah, last time I went to buy a jap bumper the dude was a rip off... learned my lesson. how much did you pay for? Dame dude, I'm sorry to hear that. Quote Link to comment

It would coast a whole lot of money to have shipped to CA. I hope it gets a second chance cuz it has a lot of potential by the way it looks here.. Sort of makes me wish i lived in africa again and buy up cars like these, the price is listed at 25000 rand for both a coupe and a station wagon, 25000 rand is about 1700 freedom bucks. but i bet if someone show up with $1000 cash and a case of beers they could take it away, https://www.gumtree.co.za/a-cars-bakkies/meadowlands/2-semi-project-1980-datsun140y-coupe-stationwagon/1001661149400910003236409 friend of mine picked up a decent '80s alfa romeo gtv6 for a little over a 1000 bucks few years back. classic cars are very cheap in south africa and combined with declining economy many people cant afford to keep classics. Datsun SSS 1.6 for about $2500 rustfree and original.... can anybody confirm that the 510 SSS are pretty much the same? also what would you pay or a clean original 510 in the US? i still want to import a datsun or 2 from south africa in a future trip. perhaps a datsun 1200 pickup if i can fit in one of course. https://www.olx.co.za/ad/1974-datsun-300c-price-dropped-from-28500-to-20k-ID15V7pI.html#128dc7a9c8 1974 datsun 300c at an absalute steal even if i were to import one ... gets me weak in the knees :rofl: Quote Link to comment
Sierra Posted September 23, 2016 Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 Yeah, last time I went to buy a jap bumper the dude was a rip off... learned my lesson. I have a set. PM if you are interested. I am in San Diego CA 1 Quote Link to comment
